    I hope it helps!  Be prepared for the first day being a little hazy, and the first month a little sleepy! That was my experience, anyway... After that, I finally felt "normal." Hoping it will work out for you, too!!

    You'll feel so much better.  I've been on zoloft for almost a month now and I feel like me again and not the weird, detached person i was before. 

    My doc told me I might feel 'off' for the first three days and he was right.  I felt extremely bad (mentally and physically) for three days but then it started to improve, and like I said, now I feel like me again.  It is supposed to take two weeks to build up enough in your system to take effect, so don't be surprised if it doesn't help right away, but mine started to kick in around day ten.  I hope it's as helpful to you as it has been to me.
